About 20 different amino acids are commonly found in proteins and most are up to 200-300 amino unit chains. However, some can be very long and some can be much shorter. There's no single answer.

Are amino acids superior to protein in terms of nutritional benefits?

Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and are essential for various bodily functions. While protein provides a complete source of amino acids, some argue that consuming individual amino acids may offer specific benefits. However, overall, protein is considered superior to isolated amino acids in terms of nutritional benefits due to its complete amino acid profile and additional nutrients.
